Currently have an Akita and a Maltise at home- Have experience with big and small dogs. Able to walk long distances on hot days. Very patient with dogs who pull. Can run or walk depending on health of dog. I am available mostly in the middle of the day as I drive a school bus. I am very flexible and can often offer services on short notice. I bring a bowl and gallon of drinking water in my vehicle for every walk to make sure that there is no risk of dehydration. I love dogs and am always patient and caring when taking care of them. I understand that your dog is very special to you and would never mistreat a dog! Thanks for reading.
